  Arena (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the American television series of the same name, see Arena (G4 TV series).
Arena is a British television documentary series, which has run in occasional seasons on BBC2 since 1975, debuting on Wednesday October 1 that year.

 TV Series
Advertised as a top flight action series shown in 158 cities in the US, and 38 countries worldwide, Jungle Jim, the TV series, in retrospect, was cheaply produced and designed to capitalize on its star’s audience appeal.
Occasionally, footage from the film series was borrowed, such as in the episode titled “Lagoon of Death,” in which scenes from The Lost Tribe and Fury of the Congo helped pad the 25 minutes.
Unlike many TV series, The Jungle Jim Show was copyrighted, and Columbia continues to hold television licensing rights until at least 2006.

 IGN: The Stax Report: Special Edition on TV-to-Film Remakes, Part II
My earlier column about turning classic TV series into feature films received such a positive response that I decided to revisit the subject sooner than expected.
This 1970s TV series could very easily be turned into a Remember the Titans-like hit family film.
It would also, like the TV series, emphasize the necessity of teamwork, showing how the Black Sheep Squadron must set aside their differences on the ground when they fly together.

For most of the series, Alejandro didn't know that Diego was secretly Zorro, and his son's apparent cowardice caused friction within the family.
Despite a series of lessons from guitar instructor Vicente Gomez, Williams never mastered the skills required and his singing was dubbed by Bill Lee, who was also one of the singers of the series' theme song..
Like many other series, there would be a number of changes made in the look of the series to reflect viewer comments and economic realities.

September 29, 2005 - R.O.D. - The TV (We Are the Paper Masters Detective Agency) #7 is the final collection of episodes from the R.O.D. TV series (not to be confused with the OVA series of the same name).
If this is your introduction to the series, you're going to be hopelessly lost; go borrow, rent, purchase or find some way to get yourself up to speed before putting this one in the DVD player.
The truly fascinating thing about this series is that it is easy to find yourself understanding and even wanting to see the "bad guys" to succeed in their plans.

 Lowering the Bar: David E. Kelley Caves to Reality (washingtonpost.com)
In truth, when Kelley gave that moving speech, there was no reality series on the air or, surprisingly, even in development in which contestants compete to marry a terrorist.
But there was this enormously successful reality series in which a bunch of young women competed to be crowned official made-for-TV girlfriend of a guy they thought was a millionaire but who really was a construction worker.
And, of course, lawyers are much better than terrorists (and the women who want to marry them), unless you're living next to one who's threatening to take you to court because the leaves from your tree are falling on his side of the fence.

 Everwood TV Series DVDs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
A fish-out-of-water tale with unusually high stakes in the relationship arena, Everwood gets much of its charge from near-perfect performances by Treat Williams (The Deep End of the Ocean) and Gregory Smith (The Patriot) as a contentious father and son trying to keep their family going after a catastrophic loss.
The series is filled out by other, sweet and eccentric regulars, including Debra Mooney as Andy's nurse (also Abbott's plain-speaking mom), John Beasley as her husband and Delia's bus driver, and Stephanie Niznik as Andy's neighbor, Nina, a surrogate mother.
But the series was on TV here for awhile and it was one of the most enjoyable series I have ever seen (the plot is already well described by previous reviewers).

If you're a die-hard fan of the R.O.D OVA series, you should know up front that the main character of the OVA, Yomiko Readman, is not the focus of this new TV series.
But once you come to terms with the main character's absence, R.O.D the TV is a mildly entertaining show with some smart humor and a much more deliberate pace than most "action" anime.
The first episode is, of course, an introduction to the TV series' characters.

Details on the series will likely remain nebulous for some time, but a 2007 release seems a likely target.
Whether the series will be live-action or animated is also unclear, though it would be difficult for a weekly live-action TV series to follow the visual template laid out by Rodriguez's film.
It's also unknown if the series will translate the remaining Sin City graphic novels or be based strictly on all new tales.

An annual study of diversity among directors on leading network television series showed a significant decrease in the hiring of women during the 2003-04 season and virtually no gains for other minorities, according to the DGA.
The report released Friday showed that the percentage of female directors on the top 40 series fell from 11% to 7%.
The only notable improvement was by fl directors, who've been steadily gaining about 1% each year from 3% of all directed episodes in the 2000-01 season to 6% this past season.

 CNN.com - Digimon Rumble Arena - February 12, 2002
Digimon World 1 and 2 were extensions of the basic Tamagotchi concept where you raise creatures and take them on adventures, and Digimon Card Battle allowed gamers with a tactical bent to build up a deck and battle computer and human opponents in a card-game deathmatch.
In one-player mode you go through a series of matches against computer opponents and face off against Reapermon in the end; two-player mode lets players choose whatever Digimon and arena they desire.
Digimon Rumble Arena does a decent job of recreating the world of the TV show, especially considering how long in the tooth the PlayStation is these days.
